'What's the problem?' Too cheap it sounds... plus I haven't even heard of a CS on a heart before? :-) (not doubting the procedure and the need, but just ignorance on my part)

But whatever the procedure I haven't even heard of a doctor appt for 15 min that cheap...

Good job!

I'm not sure what you mean? Is it so cheap that you wonder if you got the real thing?

I know someone without insurance who took her son into the ER for an emergency MRI. It cost $5000 just for that.

Not a bad deal unless it was done with divining rods and an Etch-A-Sketch.
